In the 1940's OLIVIA D'HAVILLAND was chosen as the star of the decade or such type honour for films that totally define her as an actor. After losing several Oscars, nominations pouring in once she left Warner Brothers, you will not see a more perfect picture than THE HEIRESS based on Henry James's Washington Square and the drama that lit up Broadway. Olivia turns from meek and humble to a lady of independent means all within New York of the 19th century. Willie Wyler directed with his inimitable style of take after take, it's as perfect a performance you will ever see. I can see this film 5 times a year and never tire of it.
